### v5.0.2
* When in full screen, the extension will assume player element dimensions are the same as the screen resolution. This should help with sites where ultrawidify doesn't correctly identify the player, as cropping generally doesn't work if player element is not identified. Old behaviour can be restored in advanced extension settings by toggling the "use player aspect ratio in fullscreen" checkbox under 'player detection settings'.

* It's been almost a month and Chrome Web Store still hasn't finished the review of the 4.4.4.1 (and 4.4.4.2) revisions because when it comes to incompetence, it's hard to expect anything less from Google. I've did some proverbial yelling at the support in hopes that Chrome version will finally see an update (disclaimer: when I said yelling I really mean a polite request, because support staff doesn't deserve abuse because a different department is utter shite at doing their jobs).

* **Fixed the situation with insane memory usage due to the automatic aspect ratio detection (#25, #32) and lag that appeared in certain cases after the extension has been running for a while.** There's still fun stuff going on — see notes below.
* Improved accuracy of automatic detection. This should fix the issue of rapid switching in dark videos or videos with otherwise uneven edges (#12 - [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaTGwlfRB_c); #24 - [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvZqHgFz51I) (see the car at the beginning))
Improved accuracy has increased the base RAM usage, and not by a small amount (I seem to have fixed my blunders, so that could _actually_ be on Firefox). As a result, I've reduced both resolution of the sample as well as polling frequency.

Polling of 1 check per second shouldn't use too much RAM. If you want automatic aspect ratio detection to react faster, you can up that number to 30 in the settings. 30 checks per second can be expensive: up to 400 MB if you've just started Firefox and went to youtube. Can go north of 2 gigs if you've been running Firefox for longer than that (seems to be a problem with Javascript garbage collection).

Youtube fix seems to have broken Chrome compatibility (again), so any quick fix for this point forward will land in Chrome version along with v2.2.
### v2.1.2
### v2.1.2
* Fixed some bugs with autodetection sometimes not working properly on Youtube.
Problem: there's this bit of code that keeps aspect ratio from changing when the difference between 'previous' and 'current' aspect ratio is too small. Unfortunately, the 'previous' value was _not_ updated on every aspect ratio switch for some reason. Also `ArDetect.init()` — for some reason — didn't always clean the 'previous' value even though it should.

* Introduced Netflix support.
As Netflix relies on extension re-initializing at least the UI ***a lot***, the optimization introduced in 1.0.2 was reversed (as waiting 2 seconds for the UI to appear is just too much).
As Netflix relies on extension re-initializing at least the UI ***a lot***, the optimization introduced in 1.0.2 was reversed (as waiting 2 seconds for the UI to appear is just too much).
Furthermore, triggering UI re-initialisation on onUpdated events turned out to not be the proper way to go: immediately after the extension is initialized, onUpdated gets triggered even more often than your average Buzzfeed writer/reader. But change the episode on Netflix and suddenly, onUpdated gets barely triggered at all — which means that more often than not, the UI extension injects into the page wasn't visible. (the fuck, really)
This is why Netflix uses another function that manually checks whether the player bar is present. Ideally that check happens every tenth of a second, but Firefox may be limiting that to one per second.
### v1.0.2
### v1.0.2
The 'extension sometimes not working' bug was fixed (by having extension try to setup every time a page got updated), but the fix had some problems. Namely, the extension would re-initiate (complete with re-adding the entire UI) itself very _very_ often.

This could be a problem, so it was fixed. Extension is notified of updates only every ~2 seconds (which absorbs most of the "page was updated" events on page load) and doesn't attempt to reload the UI if the UI was already loaded. (Unless `debugmsg` is set to true. It's generally not, but any commits to this repo could potentially still have it enabled).
